ChrisS commented on the blog post Jonah Goldberg Does Not Care For Your Souless, Albeit Accurate, Number Crunching
I follow baseball and I'm one of those nerds from my Mom's basement ("Mom, MOM! I'm done with my segment!"), so I've been familiar with Mr. Silver since long before 2008. I'm not convinced that Nate's model is the best or the most comprehensive or robust. His PECOTA model was flawed, but it's been improved and it was groundbreaking at the time.
And his electoral model is shit tons more accurate than just going by a gut feeling. Political reporting right now is like baseball reporting in 1984. It's all grit and hustle and heart and narrative. The nerds pouring over reams of spreadsheets and churning out the models and are slowing gaining acceptance despite encountering waves of hostile fire from entrenched blowhards that spout opinion with no evidence.
ChrisS commented on the blog post Why, those were a tribute from an admirer of mine.
but she lacks the white trash feral cynicism of a Palin.
Gottdamn, that's good. O'Donnell doesn't realize that she could make a fine living raising more boners in the tea party than viagra, like Palin, by showing up at a rally, spewing some talking points, and getting paid. But, unlike O'Donnell, Palin knows that the gravy train keeps chugging along as long as she doesn't run for office. Ol' Sarah is going to play the rubes right up until the primaries get heated and then she'll back off, say she can't run because she needs to spend more time with her family. Campaign for Newt or Romney or Jeb and keep the checks rolling for another few years. She has no interest in governing. That doesn't pay so well.
ChrisS commented on the blog post Beat. Surrender.
He said that we have a very long slog ahead of us, and he expressed frustration with people who brand him a failure just because its taking him more than two years undo forty years worth of damage done to this country by the Republicans.
Except that's what you heard, not what he said, and certainly not what the media is reporting he said.
Obama is trading a lot for the economy, but he's not doing anything that will actually improve the mid-to-long term economic situation for the lower 90% income bracket. He's kicking the can down the road until 2012, when the GOP has the house, plus giving them a whole boxful of ammunition for the GOP to take over the senate AND kick Obama out of office.
ChrisS commented on the blog post Pop-Up Punditry (Now With Butthurtiness)
What?! Say it ain't so.
I always thought it was TB Ogg.

"This album oozes talent" – The New Fury
"Instrumental quartet A Troop of Echoes execute a triumphant return with "The Longest Year On Record'" - Providence Phoenix
"The finest moments include the drum chorale that closes the opening track; the light explosion at the end of "Broadway Ghost"; and the finale of the title track, which is where the singers finally come in. The more dynamic contrast, the better. While this may have been the longest year on record for the band, we suspect that it's been a good one. With this many friends, it's hard to go wrong." – A Closer Listen
"They do an amazing job of working the rather spacious and calm work of saxophonist Peter Gilli into the rest of the band's Slint-inspired monolithic approach" - Paste Magazine
" A Troop of Echoes, hailing from Providence, RI, is a creative powerhouse…" – BaDoink Magazine
"A Troop Of Echoes deliver a sound that is nothing but outstanding […] I've also had the privilege to hear the band's upcoming title "The Longest Year on Record" and boy believe me, you in for a mega surprise on this one." – the Sirens Sound

Edison Municipal Alliance/Youth Services Commission
The Edison Township Municipal Alliance Committee, creators of the Substance Abuse Resource Center, is a grass-roots volunteer organization comprised of community leaders, private citizens and human service agency representatives. The Alliance's goal is to work together to promote and support alcohol, tobacco, other drug, and violence prevention, education programs and related activities.
The Municipal Alliance serves the town in a number of ways:
• The Substance Abuse Resource Center (SARC) was started from grant funds allocated through the Governor's Council on Alcoholism and Drug Abuse through the Middlesex County Division of Alcoholism and Drug Abuse as a confidential referral source for township residents to assess their need for alcoholism and/or drug abuse treatment. Residents will then be referred to the appropriate treatment sources.
• to identify existing alcoholism and drug abuse resources which are dedicated to treatment, prevention, and substance abuse awareness
• by providing crisis intervention information/referral and crisis counseling.
• to coordinate prevention and education projects within the community, thus avoiding duplication of services.
• to implement substance abuse and violence awareness training programs for volunteers and township police officers, first aid squad members, EMT's, firefighters, senior citizens, students, parents, teachers and the general public.
• to assess the continually changing needs of the community and provide new programming to meet those needs.

Friday, June 12
Kauffman Stadium
Attendance: None
Kansas City, MO (Sports Network) - Luke Hochevar tossed a three-hitter for his first career complete game, pacing Kansas City to a 4-1 win over the Cincinnati Reds.
The 25-year-old Hochevar (2-2), the No. 1 overall pick of the 2006 draft, had three strikeouts and one walk, logging 57 of his 80 pitches for strikes. It was an incredible performance for the right-hander, with one of the only mistakes being a homer to Jonny Gomes in the fifth inning.
Hochevar retired the final 14 batters he faced.
"That's our game plan every time out," said Hochevar. "Go out, be aggressive and attack the strike zone with quality pitches, try to induce early contact. We didn't strike out a lot of guys, but I'd rather get my outs on one or two pitches than three or four."
Billy Butler and Alberto Callaspo homered for the Royals, who won for just the third time in their last 14 games by taking the opener of this three-game series.
Matt Maloney (0-1), making just his second big league start, gave up six hits and four runs over six innings for the Reds, who dropped their second in a row.
Gomes also doubled in the third inning, while Brandon Phillips had the other Cincinnati hit - a single in the fourth.
"He pounded the zone," said Gomes of Hochevar. "They preach it. Strike one. If not, strike two. He threw three pitches for strikes. It sounds easy, but it gets tough."
Butler homered to center with two outs in the first inning before the Reds tied the game in the fifth on Gomes' blast over the wall in left-center with one out.
Kansas City went ahead in the bottom of the fifth. Callaspo was hit by a pitch and Miguel Olivo singled. Runners were at the corners after a fielder's choice off the bat of Coco Crisp, and David DeJesus then singled to right field to put KC ahead.
Mark Teahen singled with two outs in the sixth before Callaspo connected on his fourth homer of the year, a shot over the wall in left-center.

New book likens chimp warfare to that of traditional societies.
BANGKOK, Thailand — Bigger than two Japans, and thousands of times more diverse, the jungled island of New Guinea holds untold numbers of diverse tribes.
Outsiders both Western and Asian have often regarded its inhabitants with a gawking focus on their so-called "primitive" traits. Some tribes dwell in tree houses, some fit their noses with decorative bones and many hunt game with arrows.
But don't call them warlike, says a group of politically active Papuans, the island's indigenous people.
They have accused one of America's most celebrated scholars, Jared Diamond, of doing just that.
"Papuans are very angry with this man," Benny Wenda, a prominent West Papuan leader, told GlobalPost. "We invite people to come and study and respect our culture but then he puts us down. We think people are our friends … but he's acting more like our oppressor."
Diamond, a 75-year-old anthropologist with a Lincoln-esque chinstrap, is at first glance an unlikely target for indigenous backlash.
His latest best-seller, "The World Until Yesterday," compares the flaws and virtues of traditional societies — namely in New Guinea — with those of modern states. He is perhaps best known for attacking the notion that Western progress is owed to the genetic or cultural superiority of fair-skinned Europeans and their descendants.
"The objection to such racist explanations is not just that they are loathsome but also that they are wrong," he wrote in "Guns, Germs and Steel," his iconic, Pulitzer Prize-winning book. This is quickly followed with the assertion that Papua New Guineans — the focus of his research since the 1960s — are likely more intelligent and curious than Americans.
But Diamond's latest book helps justify the subjugation of tribal peoples under modern states, according to Wenda and other West Papuan leaders. In a statement circulated by Survival International, a nonprofit focused on indigenous rights, Baptist Voice of Papua director Matius Murib said that the book implies that "indigenous Papuans still display a way of life from hundreds of years ago. This is not true and strengthens the idea that indigenous people are 'backwards,' 'live in the past' or are 'stone age.'"
The backlash fomented after Survival International forwarded passages from the book to Papuan leaders, who later shared them with their own networks, said Sophie Grig, a senior campaigner with the group.
"They're very fed up," Grig said. "They're sick of being portrayed as brutal and violent."
"The World Until Yesterday" asserts that "almost all of us would say good riddance to chronic warfare, infanticide and abandoning the elderly. We understand why small-scale societies often have to do those cruel things or get trapped into doing them."
But without a justice system provided by modern states, Diamond writes, "we too would be living under the conditions of constant warfare prevailing in most non-state societies."
He adds that "calculated war-related deaths in chimpanzees," which he puts at 0.36 percent per year, "are similar to those for traditional human societies."
But Diamond's New Guinea detractors are mostly irate over alleged sins of omission.
Half of the New Guinea island is an independent state, Papua New Guinea, which tossed off Australian rule in 1975. But the Western half is under the control of the world's fourth-most populous state, Indonesia, which has waged warfare to retain its turf. State control, critics point out, has only brought more death to their people.
"The Indonesian government did not rescue us from a cycle of violence like Jared Diamond says — they brought violence to us like we had never known before," said Wenda, whose pro-independence activism has forced him into exile. "They have murdered, raped and imprisoned my people and they have stolen our land to make themselves rich."
Indonesia's troops — among them a US-trained Special Forces unit called "Kopassus" — have torched homes, tortured suspected dissidents and sent in air strikes to subdue a separatist movement. Death tolls assigned to this conflict vary wildly: Papuan independence groups quote an ex-US Foreign Service officer's claim of 100,000 West Papuan deaths. The International Crisis Group sticks with "many thousands" of deaths since the 1960s.
Wenda, among the better-known West Papuan pro-independence figures, claims to have witnessed killings and the rape of his own aunt firsthand.
"Indonesia told the world that this was 'tribal war,' They tried to pretend

What was Robert Johnson really doing at the crossroads?
First, some background. This story is one I wrote many years ago for the Denver Blues & Bones Festival. They wanted a short piece on the blues and BBQ, and I had been thinking about the myth of the iconic bluesman Robert Johnson going down to the crossroads of Highways 49 and 61 in Clarkdale, Mississippi to sell his soul to the Devil; who in turn made him a great guitar player.
There will be three different bands at Oskar Blues the last weekend of November, something for everyone to be thankful for, we hope. Starting with The Outliers, Friday November 28, the night after you have spent your day giving

The Global Intelligence Files
On Monday February 27th, 2012, WikiLeaks began publishing The Global Intelligence Files, over five million e-mails from the Texas headquartered "global intelligence" company Stratfor. The e-mails date between July 2004 and late December 2011. They reveal the inner workings of a company that fronts as an intelligence publisher, but provides confidential intelligence services to large corporations, such as Bhopal's Dow Chemical Co., Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, Raytheon and government agencies, including the US Department of Homeland Security, the US Marines and the US Defence Intelligence Agency. The emails show Stratfor's web of informers, pay-off structure, payment laundering techniques and psychological methods.

ESPA Istanbul |
Monday 17 Jun 2013
The only brief received by The Gallery HBA London for the ESPA Istanbul was to create a contemporary spa in harmony with the ethos of the EDITION brand's debut hotel. The result is a modern, moody and masculine take on time-honoured Turkish hammams. Inspiration for the designers' concept came from the layered shadows cast by light filtering though the star-shaped cut-outs of traditional hammam domes. Although sprung from ancient roots, this idea was made fresh by playing with scale, texture and materials.
Extending over three floors, the 1860 sq m spa includes both social and private spaces. The upper level needed to feel as spacious and private as possible; it contains separate male and female hammams as well as thermal, sauna, steam, ice fountain and relaxation rooms plus ten individual treatment spaces. The middle floor has been designed for "social / active" services; the fitness centre, swimming and vitality pools, a co-ed thermal suite, steam room, sauna, snow cabin, experience shower, a family changing room and the spa café are all located there. At the bottom level are the entrance, retail, changing rooms and "quick access" areas such as the specialist nail salon. The VIP suite is also reached from this floor so that these guests have a more discreet journey.
The journey through the spa is one of comfort, glamour and seductive charm, encompassing spaces with an air of mystery in which to relax and rejuvenate. Interior walls run at interesting angles, creating intimate nooks with nuanced shadows and shafts of light reminiscent of hammam domes' faceted cut-outs. Married with a rich palette of materials, the concept creates luxurious and alluring spaces in which guests feel both indulged and protected. Angular surfaces and contrasts between light and dark are expressed through materials such as bronze clad walls, finely textured horsehair wallcovering and, wrapping over the pool, backlit undulating panels with honey-toned ripples. A bronze curtain linking 529 faceted glass crystals scatters light around the reception area.
Rather than using the grey and white marble conventionally used in hammam construction, very dark stones were installed - Baltic Brown granite on the floors and Imperial Brown marble for the central plinth and benches. Accent walls in the VIP Suite are lined with rare smoky dark quartz. The result is a spa that truly reflects the spirit of Istanbul as a city steeped in ancient rituals yet also a vital force in contemporary culture.

- 5-hour private Fiat 500 tour from Florence with a candlelit dinner at a luxury villa
- Celebrate a special occasion – like an anniversary, starry-eyed proposal or simply being in Italy on this enchanting evening experience
- Drive a vintage Fiat 500 through the scenic Tuscan countryside and watch the sun set over Florence
- Arrive at a 15th-century Tuscan villa and sit down for dinner
- Relax over a delicious 4-course Tuscan meal, served by your private butler
What You Can Expect
On your 5-hour evening tour, you'll have the chance to relive the famous scene from Roman Holiday by driving your own 1960s model! After meeting your private guide at a garage in Florence, listen to the comprehensive safety briefing and be part of the practice session to get used to the manual gears of the Vintage Fiat 500s before setting off to make sure you're competent using them.
Leave Florence behind and head to the hills following your guide. As you drive along secluded roads with little traffic through the Tuscan and Chianti regions, framed by vineyards and olive groves, see the sun set over Florence.
After two hours of leisurely driving, with several panoramic photo stops, arrive at a gorgeous 15th-century Renaissance villa, buried deep in the Tuscan countryside. Your guide will lead the way through the villa's stunning garden to a candlelit table, where your 4-course meal will be served. Sit back and relax as a private butler serves you antipasto, fresh pasta, Florentine steak and salad, followed by dessert and coffee. In true Tuscan style, dinner is simple, yet made with the finest fresh, quality ingredients and accompanied by wine from the villa. Vegetarian diets can be catered for – just note this on booking.
After spending as much time as you like at the villa exploring the gardens, dining and enjoying the wine, your butler will call a taxi to take you back to Florence.
Customer Reviews
June 2014
Niccolo was fantastic! We would highly recommend! The dinner at the Villa was amazing! Just do it! You won't regret it!!!!!
July 2013
If you are looking for something unique and outside the 'tourist' box you must do this!! The best adventure we went on during our week-long honeymoon spent between Florence and Rome. The owners are so warm and friendly and extremely knowledgeable. The actual driving itself was a cool adventure and such a needed break from the standard tourist mobs. The dinner hosted later at the villa was excellent and completely private and romantic. It was as though we were the only people on the entire property outside the butler. An absolutely must when visiting Florence.

Egypt's beleaguered Christians worry about persecution, neglect under Morsi
The past 18 months have been particularly trying for Egypt's Christians, who have clashed with Muslims and lost a religious leader. Now they wonder what life will be like under an Islamist president.
Mohammed Abd El-Maaty/Egyptian Presidency/AP
Abu Qurqas, Egypt
Afaf Ibrahim Fanous walks through her brother's former home, pointing out the fire-blackened walls, charred doorways, and gaping holes in the bathroom where the fixtures used to be.
The thick dust and cobwebs that have settled on the ruined house since last year don't hide the signs of the fire and looting that took place during clashes between Muslims and Christians in this small village in the rural Nile valley. As Ms. Fanous reaches a balcony on the third floor, overlooking another burned house, this one with a cross on the outside walls, she begins to weep – but not over the ruined house.
Police arrested and tried 20 people – 12 Christians and eight Muslims – for their involvement in the clashes, during which Muslim crowds attacked and burned dozens of Christian homes and shops and Christians fired guns from their rooftops. One of the those arrested for the violence, which killed two people, was Fanous's brother.
All Christians on trial, including her brother, were sentenced to life in prison, while all Muslim defendants were acquitted.
To Fanous, it felt like another, unbearable, injustice added to the initial attack. "All the attackers are free; they weren't punished. But the people who tried to defend their homes are all in prison," she says.
It has been a difficult 18 months for Egyptian Christians. During the period between former President Hosni Mubarak's ouster and the election of a civilian president, in which Egypt was under military rule, there were at least 12 incidents of serious sectarian violence, often involving Christian homes or churches being attacked and burned. On New Year's Eve, 2011, a bomb ripped through a church in Alexandria, killing nearly two dozen people. In October, Army soldiers and unidentified civilians attacked a mostly Christian protest in Cairo, killing 27 people.

I do this with all dried beans, It is a fast and wonderful way to get your beans ready for whatever recipe you are using them in. I first got this recipe fron one of Graham Kerr's cookbooks(Minimax Cookbook) and have been using ever since.
Years ago we soaked almost every type of bean. I just read that now it is better nutritionally not to do the long soaks. Gee I must say I feel kind of silly rating soaking beans!

"My daughter and I made this over the weekend. It was delicious. The yield was perfect and the cooking time exact. We will make this again and share with the office."
"I follow a low carb nutritional approach. This recipe adopted well to my lifestyle. I used Xylosweet (a sugar alcohol) in place of the sugar and lemon extract instead of the lemon juice to hold down on the carbs. En lieu of the graham cracker crumbs I used three tablespoons of Atkins Bake Mix, cinnamon and three tablespoons of xylosweet and pec..."
"This was an easy recipe to follow. The cookies came out really well and tasted great. I will make this recipe again; however I will use a berry flavor or almond so that I can have them with tea."
"I made this dish for sabbath. I doubled the maple syrup and orange juice sauce because it wasn't enough to coat that many apples. The creme anglaise took a little longer than five minutes to thicken; but, overall, it was a good recipe. I will definitely make it again as my family enjoyed it."
"This recipe for Belgian Waffles was excellent. I made them on Sunday for my family. They loved them. We had left overs on Monday. I reheated them in the microwave and they were good."
"I made this for my family last night. I made it into a meat dish by using parve chicken broth in lieu of water and olive oil. It was a hit. I also made one for my office. Everyone loved it. I will make this again."

Tap into the powerful techniques of professional actors and great communicators
The Pin Drop Principle is a step-by-step master class for anyone wishing to become a more confident and credible communicator. Lewis and Mills believe all business professionals ought to deliver their message in such an engaging way that one could literally hear a pin drop when they speak. The secret to doing so comes from an unusual world: professional acting. By activating "objective" and "intention"—the main tools of actors (and great communicators)—business people can give their messages meaning and relevance, so the recipients walk away knowing why the message is important and what is in it for them.
The Pin Drop Principle is an accessible resource for anyone who routinely needs to present ideas to large or small groups, convey feedback effectively, conduct difficult conversations, and persuade others.

Let me start by saying that this article will hit very close to home and may be extremely raw for some that may read it. In the early hours of Sunday morning, the first fire unit was faced with heavy fire conditions and multiple fire victims, with one person still inside. Incidentally, of the five victims that escaped before the first fire unit arrived, one had to jump from a second floor window. Firefighters were advised that one person was still in the dwelling. With heavy fire on the first floor, firefighters conducted one of the most dangerous operations, known as Vent-Enter-Search, where firefighters entered the second floor via a ground ladder with active fire below them. Firefighters experienced zero visibility and high heat. The victim was located and removed via a ground ladder. Basic and advanced medical procedures were immediately administered, however this patient succumbed to their injuries.
How did this fire start? Reports indicate that improperly discarded smoking materials caused this fire. Cigarettes burn at 550 degrees Fahrenheit, which is more than enough heat to start a fire in most combustibles. An appropriate butt-can, metal with sand, might have prevented this fire from occurring. It took some time for this fire to get started. This family went to bed, never expecting what they would wake up to, just after 2 a.m. I did not hear whether there were properly placed and operating smoke alarms in this home, but the fire, heat and smoke spread rapidly, once the fire got going.
This fire made conditions difficult for firefighters with full protective equipment with self-contained breathing apparatus. In other words, conditions rapidly deteriorated and anyone inside may have had only one chance to escape, if that. This was a house where I believe that the occupants were familiar with the layout. The problem comes when you wake up from a dead sleep, with a rapidly progressing fire, disorienting and noxious smoke, and extreme heat everywhere that is not burning. Smoke alarms and a residential sprinkler system are the only devices that might buy a family enough time to escape a fire like this.
What would you do if this were your house? When was the last time that you tested your smoke alarms? You sleep on the second floor; my recommendation is that you sleep with your door closed. I know that you can give me a number of reasons why you must keep your door open. If you sleep with the door closed, smoke, heat and fire may be slowed from entering your bedroom. When you awaken from the smoke alarms activating, you need to roll out of bed, staying close to the floor. Go to your door, and feel the door with the back of your hand. If it is hot, do not open it! Instead, stuff blankets or clothing under the door. If the door is cool, open it and check the hallway. Back to the hot door, turn your light on, and open your window. You will need to get the screen out, in case you have to leave via the window. If you have a rescue ladder, deploy it and climb down. If you have no rescue ladder and cannot get to it, then you may have to hang and drop, if fire conditions dictate. Keep in mind, small children and pets will have to be helped out of a burning building. Once you get out, you must not re-enter the building for any reason. Have you ever practiced a home escape plan? As firefighters know, you play the way you practice. "A failure to plan is a plan to fail." Will you be ready if the next fire strikes your home in the middle of the night?

Someone on my list has let me know a good-quality, moderately but not astronomically expensive, 3-quart saute pan, nonstick, with a glass lid would be very welcome. Does anyone know which one she might be thinking of?
I did see a Calphalon one on line for a good price, the Everyday, but the diameter listed is smaller than my All-Clad one even though they're both listed as 3-quart, so I'm wondering if it really has the same capacity. My All-Clad is a great size but I wouldn't want it smaller. Thanks for any direction you can point me. |
Follow-Up Postings:
Hard to know about the capacity w/o having the two pans in front of you, but it may just be that the one with the smaller diameter is slightly deeper. |
Lots of factors go into capacity in addition to diameter, among them: configuration of the sidewalls , height, whether or not the top and bottom diameters are the same, and whether or not "3-quarts" is three quarts or a conversion from a metric figure. The only sure way to know is to fill the pan with water, then measure it. But, of course, you can't do that without first buying it. :>) If everything else about the Calphalon seems right, then I'd go for it. Whoever you're gifting with it can always exchange it if it isn't exactly what they're looking for. |

I am overrun by purslane in my vegatable garden. It first appeared about 2 summers ago and I am losing the battle.
Because it is my vegetable garden I will not use herbicides. I have been using a scuttle hoe to get rid of it but I worry that I am just "planting" more purslane seeds this way. Does anyone have any ideas? |

Purslane seems to magically appear overnight forming dense mats. I'm guessing you've got a fairly large area to deal with - and I'd be tempted to simply knock it out with the scuffle hoe; a warren hoe will also do it some damage. It's shallow rooted and comes up quite easily so you might be getting the bulk of it. But natrure seems to have an endless supply. Since the spot where mine appears isn't so large, I pull it out by hand. And I dispose of the pullings rather than allowing them to sit in a pile on the dirt. |
purslane is the richest vegetable source of omega 3 fatty acids known to man, next to salmon. what's wrong with us? people pay big dollars for salmon, but use pesticide on this rare vegetable omega 3 source. that doesn't make good sense. it needs to be planted in contained areas and eaten. |
Removal of every wee bit of Purslane is necessary because this plant will root from any wee bit of plant that contacts the soil. Purslane is spread far and wide by birds so even if today you clean up every bit those birds can well plant more tomorrow. A well mulched garden can aid in keeping this plant from growing where you don't want it, but it is a good food of we would only learn to eat it. |

Native plants help sustain birds and beneficial insects
(Read article summary)A growing movement in North America advocates planting more native plants that are needed by birds, bees, butterflies, and other beneficial insects.
Courtesy of Donna Williamson
Recently, I was reading an article about biennials in a magazine devoted to people who raise bees. Like people who feed birds, I have a lot of respect for folks who extend themselves to care for pets or other non-human beings.
The article was well written and interesting. What I began to notice, though, was that almost all of these plants that are a routine part of our gardens were from somewhere else.
Plants to attract bees
Canterbury bells (Campanula spp. – Southern Europe), forget-me-not (Myosotis spp. -- Europe), hollyhock (Alcea spp. – China), honesty (Lunaria annua – Europe), mullein (Verbascum spp. – Asia and Europe), and sweet william (Dianthus spp. – China and Russia) are major players in our gardens.
The only native plant on the list was the pansy of the Viola family. There are many native violas.
While I am not a zealot about native plants, I think it's valuable for us to balance our showy plants of origins elsewhere with natives to feed our insects and thus our birds.
This year I qualified as a Doug Tallamy groupie, having heard him speak at three different conferences. He is an entertaining presenter with science delivered in understandable ways to large audiences who cheer him. Not an easy task. His book, "Bringing Nature Home," is equally interesting.

Ex-Portugal captain Mario Coluna, dies
LISBON, Portugal
Mario Coluna, who captained Portugal to a third-place finish at the 1966 World Cup, has died aged 78.
Benfica, which he also led, said in a statement that Coluna died on Tuesday in Mozambique, his birthplace, due to a respiratory illness.
Coluna, a midfielder, was a contemporary of the great Eusebio, another Mozambican-born player who also appeared for Benfica and Portugal and who died last month.
Coluna played almost 700 games for Benfica from 1953. He lifted the European Champions' Cup for the club in 1961 and 1962. He later played for French club Lyon.
Portugual President Anibal Cavaco Silva said in a statement Coluna would be remembered "for his leadership qualities and his will to win."

The Woodbridge Apartments officially instituted their new gate policy on Monday. It caused some confusion and apparently there were some glitches on day one.
For those of you that live in there, what are your thoughts? Good or bad?
Did you figure out that you have to drive up on the sidewalk in order to type in your pass code? Did you pay the extra $50 for an additional clicker?

Congrats go out to the Bluffton High School Wrestling team, which crowned five region champs Saturday: Ryan Koons, Ricky Peavey, James Drew, Tyler Rosenlieb and Ricky Gonzales.
All told, Bluffton qualified all 14 of its wrestlers for the individual state tournament.
Said head coach John Hollman: "We showed up to wrestle tonight."
Great job guys, and best of luck Monday against Chapin High School in the second round of the state team tournament and in the individual state tourney.

Still looking for some more Super Bowl picks. We've got a nice array of opinions so far, but I'm greedy and want more.
Give us the score and a brief (one or two sentences) synapsis.
Have fun with it.

Eli Manning is picked off three times, two returned for touchdowns. Unfortunately, Pats win.

We all know the Super Bowl is this Sunday and, if you're anything like me, you don't really care who wins. That's the perils of being a diehard Jets fan.
My question today doesn't involve predictions or inane chatter about the minutia of third down passing efficiency.
I want to know how you -- Bluffton -- does the Super Bowl.
Do you roast a pig? Bake the Lowcountry's biggest cake? Half-time square dancing? What separates YOUR Super Bowl party from the rest?
Please, let us know. We're looking to highlight some of the better ones in Sunday's paper.
Thanks, and party on

With no football on today it might as well be Monday. It certainly feels like a Monday. So my question to you is, how are you dealing with this? Taking care of errands and honey-do's that you've been putting off since August?
That was my day. Now, I'm filling the void with hockey. All Star hockey to be exact. The NHL All-Star game in on at 6 p.m. I know hockey isn't big in the South but think of it as football on ice. What could be better?
What was your first Sunday without football like?

Why I voted today:
It used to be the administration's job to make the rules. It used to be us against them. Now, its us against us. I've been here for 7 months and I got to tell you guys, what's going on here is about America. It's about democracy, it's about the Bill of Rights, basic cable, call waiting and free trips to the salad bar! It's about everything that makes this country great. OUR COUNTRY!

Bluffton High School's boys and girls basketball teams escaped the BHS gym Friday night with wins. Barely.
The girls rolled to a win, trouncing R.B. Stall High School 73-29. Stall kept it close in the first half, but the Lady Bobcats clamped down with a full-court press in the third quarter and it was all over, thanks in part to a 19-0 run. Bluffton's Jasmine Blackshear led all scores with 20 points. All told, nine different Lady Bobcats scored points.
The girls face Hardeeville High School on Saturday. Game time is 6:30 p.m.
The boys' game was much closer.

Wild Sweet and Sour Chicken
- Login to add to Recipe Box

- 1 Comment
This recipe has been in my family for more than 25 years. I love it because it is easy, delicious and it is a a one pot meal. This is my family's favorite dish!!!
- 2 boxes of Uncle Ben's Long Grain and Wild Rice
- 6, 8. or 10 pieces of meaty chicken depending on size (skin ON)
- 1 large can diced pineapple in syrup
- 1 large can Lesure peas with liquid
- 1 can mushrooms, stems and pieces with liquid
- 1 small jar of pimentos
- 1/2 stick of butter cut into pieces
- salt and pepper to taste
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.Pour rice from boxes into 13" x 9" casserole dish. Next, pour seasoning packets into rice and mix well. Arrange chicken evenly on top of rice (skin side up).
Pour entire can of pineapple and syrup over chicken. Pour entire can of peas with liquid over pineapple. Pour entire can of mushrooms with liquid over peas. Sprinkle pimento over the top of the food. Next, sprinkle butter pieces evenly over the top. Salt and pepper to taste.
Bake at 400 degrees for 45 minutes to an hour. Check regularly
and bake until chicken is well done. Add water as needed to keep rice from sticking to pan. When the chicken is cooked, remove dish from oven. Place chicken on serving plates and stir the rice mixture well. Serve with biscuits or rolls.
Note: I once made this dish with skinless chicken but it wasn't nearly as good as when I made it with the skin on. The chicken drippings are important to the wonderfully delicious result of this flavor combination.

I gave it a shot, and it appears I have to rotate my grip more if I hit the mag release with my trigger finger rather than my thumb. I hardly need to rotate at all when I hit it with my thumb.
I also noticed that my right middle finger covers up 80% of the mag release (if it were on the right side), so I need to both rotate and move my grip down.

The Democrat from San Antonio tweeted, "Won't gas up there anymore since they support a fear mongering immigrant-basher. Wonder how Buc-ee's patrons feel about their endorsement." Patrick recently posted a Facebook photo with Buc-ee's mascot and the owners of the convenient store chain. "I am very proud to have the support of Buc-ee and his owners," Patrick posted. In a written statement, Congressman Castro stated he's "disappointed that a popular and well-respected retailer would lend its corporate brand to a candidate for statewide office who has built his career around dividing Texans." Castro's brother, Mayor Julian Castro, and Patrick are working on a date for a debate on immigration.
